Sunday, 18 August is the final day of the exhibition Cassio Peau after Guðnýju Guðmundsdóttur The artist will therefore be in the gallery between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. to talk about her work on display. The exhibition features mostly new and recent works by the artist, created in paper, clay and video. She reflects herself in the works, presenting reflections on a wounded ego, self-aggrandisement and narcissism, drawing inspiration from Greek mythology.

The viewer steps into an ambiguous world, where titles in different languages (German, French, English and Icelandic), inscriptions and numerous references to beings and phenomena from the classical world can be found. The works then move us back and forth in time, prompting us to ponder internal connections or relationships, as they form a kind of constellation or cluster that perhaps offers more questions than answers.

Guðný Guðmundsdóttir (b. 1970) graduated from the Iceland Academy of the Arts in 1993, the Hamburg University of Fine Arts in 2001, and has worked as an artist ever since. In her artistic practice, she works with media such as drawing, painting, collage, sculpture and photography. Gudny lives and works in Berlin.

We would also like to draw your attention to the fact that Sunday is the final day of the exhibition 'In Time and Out of Time', which focuses on the various manifestations of time in the works of the women artists. Arna Ottarsdottir, Leslie Roberts and Amy Brener, curated by Ingunn Fjóla Ingþórsdóttir.
